Increased interactions between R&I stakeholders in our societies require changes at research funding and performing organisations to accept inputs from citizens and organisations that used to be considered outsiders to the world of R&I. Co-Change inspires such changes by introducing new practices in the areas of research ethics, open access, citizen engagement, gender equality and science education.

Change labs
In the co-change labs we will have the possibility to use our knowledge from various responsible research projects and other activities in order to support the R&I actors in their daily work by co-creating tailor-made responsible research related tools and practices. By doing so, we can learn from our work with the stakeholders and engage in change from bottom up scenarios.
